And in order to use their only somewhat-capable attack, they need to drain that away. And what about their 2d-2 claw attack? |

Re: 14-Hex Dragon
Assuming the dragon just lays down and waits to be slaughtered. Otherwise, maybe he has the wizard for lunch while he's drawing his pentagram.

Re: 14-Hex Dragon
Clearly, you can 'theory-craft' your way out of any box (or dragon's lair), but I think we've strayed a bit from my original question. There's got to be a couple folks on here who tried to tackle one of these beasties in an actual game setting at some point over the last 40 years. Epic wins or epic fails welcome!

If you want to make dragons deadly then don't use the claws. Four hex dragon doesn't extend its claws and simply strikes you with its untrained ST 30 paw for 1d+3 damage. 7-hex: 4d+1. 14-hex: 8d+1

I feel like I seriously don't understand how some people play this game!
